Oh, and there aren't trees in pic behind Zelgadis, there're only leaves and rain. Tutorial for rain effect is too easy: [link] or [link]

Well, first of all, the leaves and the rain are based on a photo. The background here was copied, but manual and sooooo ardous , with a soft brush and combining the "smudge tool", "dodge tool" and "burn tool": [link] but you can also find in internet brushes with leaves for make it easier. [link] [link] [link]
When I finished all the background, EFFECTS: I applied in photoshop this option: Click in the layer of background and... Image/ Adjustments/ LEVELS and I gave more black and more white with this option for achieve this contrast (This is the best tool in Photoshop for make contrasts). Later, I've darked the corners of pic with a black and soft brush with opacity 5% and flow 50% (but never the centre of pic, only around the corners and edges) but I think it's better if you apply a "gradient tool" with radial gradient option (colours: transparent to black). And on lower right-hand corner I 've created too another lineal gradient in other new layer (this time with transparent and dark-blue, not black) with opacity 85% and later, the rest of this cape is erased (if you don't do this, you couldn't see Zel's face ) Finally I removed the layer of lineart (only on backgroud, cuz I've here 2 layers with lineart: Zelgadis and background) I prefer main characters with lineart and the background without lineart.
Yes, I know, I make life difficult for myself every time I draw
For characters and etc... I use this colouring technique, cuz I use a lot of layers in a pic and I think this one is the tidiest way for draw, as you can see, I draw with groups of layers: [link]
Hope I've helped you ^_^ and thanku for appreciate artistic details and efforts, cuz the background was the most ardous thing in pic, Zelgadis was sososososo easy in comparison with background!

I absolutly love the lighting in this picture! My favorite part and the eye is gorgeous. x3
There's something about the way you color that makes everything stand out more. x3 Great great job.

Zelgadis has never looked handsomer <3 I love his expression. I also like the effects of the sparkles and the colors you used---especially the backround. Excellent job <33 And yet another to add to my favs. Im never dissapointed in your art--nor will I ever be. ^_^
